[WC] World Cup 2010 - General Talk Thread (66 Viewers)

And have in mind that in the 1954-1990 period it was only West Germany. I wonder if the team would have been more successful if Germany was united and if they'd have won more World Cups.
Afterall, looking at the post 1990 period, players like Michael Ballack, Matthias Sammer, Bernd Schneider, Carsten Jancker etc were all from East Germany. I guess that the German squad would have been stronger in the pre-1990 period if both Germany's were united.

When you put it that way....more than half of those Juventini who won a World Cup did it in 1934 and 1938

I was talking about the ridiculous "best club in history" classification and how idiotic it is on club level. While when NT are concerned some of the best football was played on that stage with competition being a fierce one, not one sided as that of the era I spoke about.
Yo freddy, I was merely talking my mind. I never asked for those periods to be deleted from history I just find it ridiculous that at the time when no competition was there and RM ruled, is the period that's making a difference in that ridiculous classification.
Word.
The ranking you were just proud of, well more than half of them were WC winners in 1934 and 1938 as well. So...
